I waited a month for my appointment (seems like Danica is one of the only allergists in LA) and it was well worth it! I’ve been having really rough environmental allergies, and wanted to get retested for which nuts I was allergic to because its been over 15 years since the last time I did it. It was really helpful to find out everything I am allergic to and be prescribed allergy meds that have been working very well so far. The staff was really nice and they all made me feel very comfortable. Definitely recommend going here!
Verified patient
Amazing Dr. and experience.
Verified patient
I was warmly greeted upon my arrival. I found Dr. Schulte to be pleasant and professional. I was not rushed. Also, the support staff was friendly and efficient.
Verified patient
I was supposed to test for allergies, but I tested positive for histamines! So Dr Schulte ordered blood tests to check for allergies.
Verified patient
Dr. Schulte was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! The office staff was very friendly and efficient. We paid out of pocket for my son’s tests because our HMO wouldn’t cover it, but they are worth every penny! We even traveled 3+ hours to see her. We would do it again in a heartbeat! Thank you all so much for taking such good care of us.
Great repeat experience with Dr. Schulte. She took her time to discuss my concerns and offered several options. Her office staff was equally helpful with check-in. I would have preferred to fill out forms ahead of time electronically, but it only took about 10 minutes to do.
Verified patient
Dr Danica is a wonderful doctor who took her time to answer all my questions and chat about treatment. I should note that she is not just a pediatric allergist but also sees adults. Truly would recommend, do not think about it, just book the appointment already.
Dr. Schulte and her staff were super friendly and gave me all the information I needed. This is the first time I have been checked for allergies, and Dr. Schulte gave me some great guidance for any prescriptions moving forward from listening to my story and looking at my breakout photos, exercising caution based on her knowledge.
